Do you like to listen to podcasts? This article will present to you a way to listen to podcasts on your iPhone, when the MP3 file of it, isn't present.

Steps

1

Download, install and open the Podcasts app from the Apple AppStore. Allow the app the ability to update it's database, if it says it needs to.

2

Tap the "Search" button on the bottom right corner and search away.

3

Tap the episode of the exact podcast article you'd like to download. Tap the price "button" or the down-arrow pointer on the right hand side of the same line as the episode (on the same line as the name) to begin the download. This podcast will either be in audio-only form or audio and video, so the download file sizes will vary.

4

Recognize when the download is ready. The line will say "Downloaded" if it is absolutely ready to listen to.

5

Tap the Audio or Video button, dependent on its format, once the line says "Downloaded".

Tips

You can also tap the "Search" icon from the bottom of the iTunes screen, type your search text in the box from the top of the screen.

You can find all your downloaded podcasts after download on the same button or in the Music (for iPod touch) or iPod (on an iPhone) app under tapping the "More" button and tapping "the Podcasts" option.

You can also select a podcast via the iTunes software and synchronize the podcast episode with your device, or you can even find an MP3 file episode within the Internet and synchronize your device with this episode.

If there is no longer a Podcast setting on your iPhone, you may have to download the official Apple "Podcasts" app directly from the Apple AppStore instead, onto your iPhone.
